How do i merge three different repositories belong to a same project (frontend,backend,and dashboard) into a single repository maintaining all commit history

Actually I am currently working on a personal project that contains its backend , frontend and a seprate dashboard code and their codes are currently now in 3 different repositories. Now i want these three repositories to be in single repository having three different sections for frontend , backend and dashboard respectively with their commit histories and also when i want to deploy this project using platforms like vercel , aws , docker etc , I can do that easily without any complications and without any money(for free).

Is this thing possible ?? If yes, Please help me, how i can achieve this ?

Create a New Repository: Initialize a new local repository to serve as the combined project.

Add Each Repository as a Remote: Add each individual repository (frontend, backend, dashboard) as a remote.

Fetch and Relocate Code: For each repository, create a branch, move its code into a designated folder (e.g., frontend/, backend/, dashboard/), and commit.

Merge Branches: Merge each branch into the main branch of the new repository (using --allow-unrelated-histories to retain commit history).

Clean Up and Push: Remove the extra remotes, and push the combined repository to the remote.
